United are still looking for a marquee name to fill the void left by Zlatan Ibrahimovic's departure, and though they spent £75million on Romelu Lukaku the Belgium international has not secured superstar status just yet.

Real, meanwhile, would love to poach the star from fierce rivals Barcelona 16 years after they did the same with Luis Figo.

It is said Neymar is listening to all offers from clubs and his current team are worried he could opt to leave for a new challenge elsewhere.
